Hi, my name is Yuli. I’m a 19-year-old award-winning filmmaker based in Bristol, UK.
I specialise in cinematography and aerial videography. Over the past five years, I’ve worked on a wide range of short films, commercials, and music videos, gaining extensive experience with mirrorless and cinema cameras.
In 2023, I co-founded Breathing Films, a filmmaking collective and YouTube channel with a community of over 15,000 followers. Our films have collectively reached more than 2 million views online, screened at international festivals, and won awards in London and Los Angeles.
I’ve also notably worked as 1st AC and drone operator on the BAFTA-nominated short film WILDSUMMON, and as 1st & 2nd AC on multiple Ren Makes Music videos. 
I hold a commercial drone license with over 600 hours of flight experience, including FPV drone work for real estate, music videos and commercials.
I’m currently based in Bristol, collaborating with production companies and building my portfolio, and Breathing Films further.
I’m very happy to be working at somthing I love. 

If you have any ideas, projects or anything else in mind, don’t hesitate to get in touch! 
I'm always down for an adventure!  
Thanks - Yuli Freed
